What is a GSA Schedule?

A GSA schedule, also known as a General Services Administration schedule or a Federal Supply Schedule, is a government contract that allows businesses to sell their products and services to federal agencies without going through the lengthy bidding process. This contract can be a great opportunity for businesses to expand their customer base and increase their revenue, as the federal government is a large and reliable source of business.

GSA Advantage is the government's central online shopping superstore providing online access to millions of products and services from thousands of federal contractors. Think of it like the Governments own Amazon Shopping site for Government buyers and suppliers.

Obtaining a GSA schedule can be a lengthy and complex process, as there are many requirements and documentation that must be met. The first step is to determine if your business is eligible for a GSA schedule. To be eligible, your business must be a small business or a small disadvantaged business, and your products or services must be deemed necessary for the government.

Once you have determined that your business is eligible, you will need to complete the online application process and submit all necessary documentation, including financial statements, business references, and product information. The application process can be time-consuming, so it is important to start early and allow plenty of time for review and revisions.

After your application has been submitted, it will be reviewed by a contracting officer. If your application is approved, you will be given a GSA schedule number, which allows you to start selling your products or services to the government.

Overall, obtaining a GSA schedule can be a complex and lengthy process, but it can also be a rewarding opportunity for businesses looking to expand their customer base and increase their revenue. The US Government is the largest entity in the United States.  Having a GSA schedule makes it easy for Government buyers to acquire your products and services.  If you have something they want -- and you are not on the schedule -- the buying process can turn into a lengthy bidding process which can take months.  By carefully researching the requirements and submitting an accurate and thorough application, your business can secure a GSA schedule and benefit from the many opportunities it provides.
